Hello, I'm Kendall Terra Sweeney. ​ I am a dynamic Creative and Content Manager with over 8 years of experience in the advertising industry, specializing in social first marketing, campaign integration and remote production management of video, digital experience and still photography. I studied film and advertising at SCAD with a focus on cinematography.

 

As a creator, I am a pioneer on the AI front: familiar with localizing tools and integrating them into traditional workflows. I am in the process of mastering the craft, specifically by learning ComfyUI. I am also experienced as a cinematographer, editor, colorist, and sound designer. I excel in the Adobe Creative Suite, Capture One, and DaVinci Resolve.
 

I began my career as a DP, shooting brand films for Cox Communications, Salomon, Merrell, Hydro Flask and Westerlind USA. As the marketing landscape evolved, I began to direct and create brand social content. My clients included The North Face, Walmart, and Pinterest.

At COOLA I was a content creator, leaning into the conceptual side of their brand work. While managing, and overseeing all aspects of production—from location scouting, casting, production, and editorial through final delivery. My favorite aspect was working closely with the creative team during the concepting phase. During my time at COOLA, my role expanded to creating decks for senior leadership that included creative concepts, mood boards, scripts, storyboards, wardrobe direction, and lighting plans. Even with the added responsibility I was still very hands on, loving the moments when I was free to create.

 

When I'm not at work, I practice yoga, surf, skateboard, snowboard and love to travel. I am an ally for LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities.

​​

Currently, I live in the Netherlands and hope to make this my home.

Reviews

 
"I interviewed Kendall for her position at COOLA and was immediately struck by her positivity and genuine passion for creative work. I was thrilled when she joined the team and had a great time collaborating and creating with her during her time on the team. She is highly motivated, has a great eye for what is working creatively, and is one of the hardest workers I've been around. Kendall and I collaborated on several campaigns where she expertly managed multiple facets of the production, from talent booking and budget/contracts, to storyboard creation and overall strategy, along with more technical skills like lighting design and actual video footage. She was a valued member of our small marketing and creative team and someone that I always could count on to bring grit and energy to each project. Towards the back half of her time at COOLA, Kendall took on larger creative strategy portions of our shoots and is highly motivated to grow and learn anything needed for her role. Kendall is talented, driven, and positive about her work. It comes from a personal place for her and shows through in how she carries herself confidently and with joy in all her pursuits whether at work or in life. She truly GETS IT and would be a valuable and effective member in any creative role in the future. Highly recommended!"

Eric Gangnath, Senior Art Director, COOLA
